Ovarian Metastasis From Diffuse Epithelioid Malignant Mesothelioma Revealed by 18F-FDG PET/CT.

Diffuse epithelioid malignant mesothelioma (MM) with metastasis to the ovary is rare. We reported FDG PET/CT findings in a 39-year-old woman with ovarian metastasis from diffuse epithelioid MM. The ultrasound findings at the external hospital revealed multiple masses in the hepatic hilus. FDG PET/CT examination was recommended to evaluate the nature of the lesions. It showed that 2 hypodense lesions in the perihepatic space had intense activity, and there was an additional FDG lesion in the right ovary, which was later confirmed as diffuse epithelioid MM with ovarian metastasis by pathological examination.
